Abstract:

Of the six species of Arctopsychidae here reported from Canada and adjacent States of the United States, three belong to each of Arctopsyche McLachlan and Parapsyche Betten. Of 72 species of Hydropsychidae, 24 belong to Cheumatopsyche Wallengren, 42 to Hydropsyche Pictet, three to Macrostemum Kolenati, and one each to Potamyia Banks, Diplectrona Westwood, and Aphropsyche Ross. Keys are provided (for males, and females where possible) to genera and species. For each species the habitus is described in some detail, with diagnostic statements for the genitalia. Also included are brief statements about way of life and known distribution. Distributions are mapped, and genitalia are illustrated.
